Frankenfood? Demand Labeling of Gene-Altered Food!

I am deeply concerned that the Food and Drug Administration has issued Draft Guidance that will allow meat and milk from genetically engineered animals into the food supply without any way for me to know whether I'm buying or eating such food. Genetically engineered animals can pose health risks, which is why the FDA is proposing to conduct a full safety assessment for milk and meat from these animals. If these foods need to be assessed for their safety, why would the FDA allow them to be sold without labels identifying them as such?

For example, goats have been engineered with spider genes to produce spider silk in their milk. And pigs have been engineered with mouse and bacterial DNA to improve the way they metabolize their feed. These animals are obviously different than their counterparts that have not had their genes altered. Not only should the milk and meat from these animals be studied to determine if they are safe, they should be labeled so we know exactly what we are buying.
